Aurora Fjord Cabins

Location: 5/5 Quiet: 4/5 Activities: little options or quite expensive Northern Light: clouded sky Communication: 2/5 WiFi: 2/5 ‐--------‐------- In wintertime, the sun does not come up so good to realise there is a little twilight around noon but pitch dark the rest of the day. So that limits the available outdoor time and as the cabin is really mini and the WiFi limited, bring books to read. The tour around the distillery is nice but costly (€75 per person including a slice of bread with shrimps). A whale watch tour €300 per person and 3 hrs snowscootering with 2 persons on one scooter €600. We experienced the communication with Sarah over the months preceding and during the trip as disappointing: phone not answered during office hours, no call back and information inadequate. The cabin is advertised as "with WiFi" but upon arrival the guestbook explains why WiFi is so limited (some unrepairable technical issue) so i feel it would perhaps be more honest to disclose that Before One Has Booked "limited WiFi or little bandwidth WiFi". Drive from Tromso airport (navigation leads you via city centre but E8 around town is much faster) to cabins is around 2.5h (including time on ferry, check timetable). Roads are excellently cleared during snow, 4x4 recommended to drive up from parking lot of cabins back to main road.

Since the moment we first saw them while the distillery tour we knew 100% we have to try out the experience of spending some time in one of this fabulous cabins. First: the location right on the edge of the rocks combined with the huge glass wall facing the fjords - outstanding! Second: the cabins are cozy, stylish and fully equipped (the kitchenette is more than useful taking in consideration the limited number of restaurants in the area, air co just perfect for the warm summer days and the bed was relaxing & comfortable). The cherry on the cake for us was the living area with the sofa facing the stunning views. A place for bbq can be found near to the first cabin as you are coming from the parking area. Internet available and also a small speaker to play your music. If it’s something we would wish more from this location, that would be bathrobes to be available and some terrace furniture. Highly recommended, the place is fabulous and Sarah was more than helpful and friendly.

Cabine lumineuse vue magnifique Très propre .Nous avons vu quelques aurores boréales. Nous avons tout apprécié , la cuisine était bien équipée et même une cafetière avec des filtres. Il y avait un petit nécessaire de nettoyage. Sarah était très professionnelle suite au petit aléas de notre clé Vraiment un bel endroit
